Volunteer at Holly Hagg
We welcome new volunteers and have roles to suit all levels of experience for volunteers aged 14 plus. Please see the information below to find the best fit for you then get in touch to let us know you are interested. Unfortunately our site is unsuitable for people with mobility issues as the land is steep and uneven in places. If you are under 18 or on a placement you will need to complete an information and consent form. Please see our Junior volunteers page for more information about volunteering under the age of 18.
Our volunteering sessions can be very satisfying and enjoyable for those who love the outdoors, but please note that the work can be quite physical in what can sometimes be cold and wet conditions. We have a small number of light tasks, but most jobs are quite heavy work – such as digging vetable beds, building walls and fences, moving feed sacks and scooping alpaca manure off the meadows.
